Value Momentum
There’s a gift hidden in progress. A gift that defies this race against time we find ourselves trapped in. Momentum is a gift given to those making progress.
Momentum is understanding that we are the ones responsible for our progress. We control the difficulty and efficiency of our progress.
Need to finish writing 30,000 words in 3 months? Write 10,000 words a month. Or 30,000 words in a month. Or 20,000 in a month, then finish the rest slowly before the deadline.
Need to raise 1M? Self-fund it now. Or raise batches of it at different times. Or find a rich person to do it for you.
Momentum can go to zero. But that isn’t desirable. The point is to have a baseline number. Non-zero, Positive Momentum.
Either work on difficult tasks at slower speeds, or easier tasks at faster speeds. Whatever the approach, maintain a Non-zero, Positive Momentum.
The gift of making progress of any kind is realizing that one must keep moving forward. By varying levels of difficulty and efficiency of undertakings, maintain non-zero, positive momentum.
